Consumers expect that OnePlus will launch the OnePlus 5 this June. As the release date draws nearer, another leak showing the phone's specs finds its way online to raise curiosity and eagerness for the mobile device.
Images shared on the Chinese social media site Weibo revealed that the OnePlus 5 carries a dual rear camera. While this has been speculated for quite some time, the newest rendered images showed one thing that was never mentioned before — the cameras are set vertically at the top center, while the LED light flash is right below it, as pointed out by The Android Soul.
OnePlus partnered with DxOmark as its camera lens supplier. DxOMark is a known company in the mobile photography niche.
Another leaked image of the OnePlus 5 displayed a blue protective casing. The rest of the phone's specs follow a nearly identical look as last year's OnePlus 3T release.
As for its hardware specs, OnePlus confirmed their upcoming smartphone is as fast as the Samsung Galaxy 8. It's powered by the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 found in the Samsung phone, as well as on units like the LG G6 and HTC U11. "With graphically-demanding apps, for example, you'll notice how fast they load and how well they run," OnePlus CEO Pete Lau said, in a community blog post.
With these features all but confirmed, could the OnePlus 5 be priced higher than expected? Android Authority, through its unnamed source, gauges the device could be priced slightly higher than other models at $650. It is not, however, as expensive as its competitors.
